Walt Disney World Marathon Jan 6-8
The Walt Disney World Marathon will be held from January 6th through January 8th. It’s held in the Magic Kingdom and thousands of marathon runners and their friends and families invade the park. It would be wise to avoid the Magic Kingdom on this weekend and plan to enjoy it on a weekday before or after the Walt Disney World Marathon.

Fantasmic!
Although Fantasmic used to be shown every day at Disney World, there are only a minimal amount of shows offered anymore. During the month of January, it is only available from the first through the fourth. The performances are limited and the wait time can be ridiculously long. With that being said, it is a spectacular show that really shouldn’t be missed on a visit to Walt Disney World.
